I like the look of this bra, it reminds me of something a mermaid would wear on her wedding day. The thing is, the cups are super shallow.

I think that this bra is a major shape mismatch. I have worn bras with similar cup width and depth and been mostly okay in them, but this one was a massive flop.

I had lots of quadboob. The cups were too shallow and too wide-set, and the curve of the wires was too extreme. I need a gentler, shallower curve to the wire, a more projected cup, and a much narrower gore, the cups need to touch if possible.

I would prefer a wider strap, as well, these were a bit too narrow/unpadded for my taste, but that is more of a preference than a requirement.

The uncoated metal hooks & eyes were lovely! I like the look, and I think it'd stay nice looking much longer than painted hooks.

Listing it riiiiight away. I really wish it had worked :/ it's GORGEOUS.

I think this bra is not the right size for me. I have been wearing it for a few months, in the beginning it seemed fine, or maybe I did not checked the sizing well enough. It is pretty, but (in this size) not as supportive as I would like a bra to be. The cup's seem to gap at the top, and wrinkle at the base. Also the band seems to wide, the maximal stretch for the band is 87 on the first hook, and 90 cm on the last. I think that is far to much stretch for a bra that is sold as a 70 band.

This bra is one of my new favorites for fit, particularly on the smaller end of my cycle (I needed a bra or two to take care of those days, so I'm thrilled to have found something). I'm a fan of quite firm bands, which this definitely is. I'm relatively average projected and slightly full on bottom, and gives great shape and lift. Unfortunately, the colors of the fabric aren't the best for my skin tone (being very, very pale is a major drawback at times), but that's not a major issue for me at all.

The band isn't as tight as some of the other Masquerades I tried. It fits like a true 28, maybe a tiny bit loose, in my opinion. The band has flexible, thin rubber strips sewn on the inside to help prevent slipping. I thought the three hook-and-eye closures were nice. The cups are smooth and don't show through shirts. I think it's a decent fit for shallow busts, though not perfect. I get some empty spaces in the cups, but it hides them well.

The bad parts are the wires. The gore is unusually high that the top of the gore digs in and hurts. I usually have problems with low gores, not high, but this one is a bit painful. The sides are pretty high too. I think I'm going to keep it with the center gore patched with foams or something because this is my only strapless bra that doesn't fall when I breathe out.

This is my new favorite bra. It's pricey but worth it particularly for girls with shallow/FoB breasts. Doesn't hurt that the quality is impeccable. The wires are a little wide on my smaller breast, but only just. I tried the 28E, but the gaping on my smaller breast when I slouch and the wide wires made me decide to stick with this size. The band is very firm, with little stretch. I measure about 68cm around and I can only just fasten it on the first hook. But I'd much rather wear an extender for a couple weeks, bras stretch out over time not shrink!

I tried to get another 28FF Masquerade Tiffany Plunge Bra after I wore this the first time, but this seems to have been the last one for sale on our planet. I love the super low gore, the low coverage cups, the satiny material, the wide enough wires on the sides. I wish the wings were higher. I wish the straps were fully adjustable. I'll eventually shorten the straps. I have firm tissue, so I can deal with low gores and very low cups.

I bought three 30F Masquerade Tiffany Plunge Bras from Zulilly, knowing I'd have to alter the bands. That's how much I love this bra.

Gorgeous colour and lace detailing. Gives a fantastic rounded shape and cleavage, and the inside of the cups is so soft. The band is on the firmer side of a 34, but I think it just runs true to size. I bought this when I was trying to figure out my size and I am now a 32HH/J, so this 34G is completely wrong for me. Even in the right size, it would be too wide and shallow.

This bra runs small. It has wide straps that didn't extend long enough for it to fit me. The band isn't very stretchy and it needs slightly more projection than I have to offer. It might be good for someone 'slightly shallow' or even projection. The bra is soft and comfortable though!

This is such an underrated bra! This is my go-to bra for any occasion.

Pros:
Soft material
Most comfortable moulded bra I've ever worn
Straps are semi-padded
Nice tight band for a sub-28 such as myself
Simple yet elegant
Encapsulates tissue surprisingly well for a plunge
Lots of support

Cons:
Expensive (around $82)
Not available in beige
Not fully-adjustable straps
Not my preferred shape under a shirt (I like round and uplifted)

I personally love cleavage, which this bra can give on a day when your breasts are bigger, but the cups are just separated enough to where they don't get sweaty.

I'm probably going to take the band in a bit on this, because it fits me perfectly otherwise. The straps are a good distance apart an have a comfortable padding (like the other two masquerade models I've tried). The band seems a bit stretchier than the others, however. This is the largest size I've gotten yet, but it seems to be a good volume with two vertical seams, wires that are wide enough, and cups that are open at the top (really good for my shape).

While this bra doesn't fit perfectly, and I would trade it for the 28DD in heart beat, I'll still keep it. The wires poke me in the sternum a bit, more when I slouch. The cups are just a bit too small, but nothing noticeable since there is kind of a thick line at the top of the cup (which are shaped in such a way that any quad boobing is minimized), and the lace masks it a bit as well since it extends just over the top of the cup. It gives a good shape, and so it can look good under most shirts. However, the two vertical seems and the thick edge of the cups are fairly noticeable under t-shirts. The band is very stiff, but it's true to size. The straps are fairly thick on the shoulder, and ridiculously comfortable. I also love the details of the lace as well as the look and feel of the material.

one of my favorite bras to this point. has stood up to my long time wear. I wear this bra every day, and it is large and small enough to fit me when my ribcage stretches out around my period, and when it is at its normal size.

SO CLOSE! I feel like this bra would fit me nearly perfectly if I were just a bit fuller on top. There is some gapping at the top of the cups, nearly imperceptible on my larger breast unless I bow my shoulders in. It's not an issue that can be solved by stuffing socks under my breasts (yes, that may become a thing), nor will any really fit in there, at least, not without it being incredibly obvious that I'm stowing a sock in my bra. The band feels snugger than the Beau I tried earlier today, and while I could fasten it on the tightest set of hooks, it was less comfortable that way. I can't say it's the most comfortable bra I've ever worn, but I'm willing to give it a day trial.

I guess the search for the perfect strapless bra is still on. The Deity Strapless did not fit me at all. The cups were wrong in every single way for my wide-rooted, shallow boobs. Too deep in the center, yet not enough room at the top. It looked really pointy and cut into my armpits. I realize that it is a strapless bra, but the gore came up so high, it was uncomfortable.

If you do happen to have the right shape for this bra, it is made of pretty nice material.

The band is pretty firm. The cups look to be good for shallow busts. They are open on top and there are no horizontal seams.
I'm having a similar problem as Karen or Maddie with this one, so I think it may work well for those who can wear Maddie.

This bra is gorgeous. I just wish it fit https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> I knew I was taking a risk but had hoped that I could get away with it being a G. I am usually a GG sometimes H but I loved this bra I was willing to give it a try.

Its very well made and an excellent quality bra but I just barely fit. It does give me a bit of quadboob as I am very FOT. Its not overly noticeable and its not a dealbreaker as I think I will get an extender and loosen the straps a bit and readjust to see if I can get a better fit.

It doesnt poke me(though I have only tried it on once) but wearability is not there because the band is too tight at this point to wear it for hours.

I am keeping an open mind in hopes that with some adjustment I can make it work as it's not too out of the fit realm. I'll update as I adjust things.

Overall, I do not like the Antoinette. The cups are the perfect width and don't dig into my wide-rooted, shallow boobs, but two things make it insufferable. Firstly, the straps are way too far apart. I don't like that they connect to my armpit. Secondly, I can't stand how high the gore goes because it pokes my sternum. Of course, that's just the way bandeau bras are.

This review is about the black colorway. I like that it is all black, including bits of black lace on the top and bottom (if it must have lace), but the heart-shaped charm on the gore with the fake diamond should be removed, along with the gore bow. Why that seems to be required is beyond me.

The gore does not tack completely on me, but I also don't fill the cups entirely. It's a little bit too big on the larger breast, and at least a cup size too big on the smaller side. It seems to be a soft gore which causes the non-tacking as pushing it flat didn't result in any overspill.

The band was too tight for me; I had to wear it with an extender.

Update: I tried to wear it once, but it is too high under the arms for me.

I love the look of this bra so much I bought it twice and am looking for #3 even though it's probably pointless. I started with a 34FF when I had just begun my bravolution and was still trying to come to terms with the idea of letters above D. The band was tighter than I was used to and the cups were clearly too small, but it had real potential. When I saw this one on eBay, I thought it was worth a shot. It still has great potential, but it only goes up to a GG and I don't know if that would ... be enough in a wide-set plunge like this one. Oh, but I'd try! If it was close, I'd try taking the gore in at the bottom to turn the cups up a little at the center where I most fall out. Here's why:

The colors, patterns, fabrics, etc. are lovely. Subtle but not boring, classy & sexy; pretty on and off.
Very comfortable & supportive even with only 2 hooks.
Quality seems flawless. Materials & construction are perfection.
Surprisingly practical - the 3-part cup seams are super flat and the lining prevents nipple show through. The straps are much thinner than most of the G-cup options out there. The gore and cups are are very low so it's less likely to show under a low neckline.
